Safety, trust & environment

I will follow your instructions, set alarms for potty breaks and walks, and be available to send photo and text updates. During house sitting, I will let you know about my drop-in visit schedule. Your pet will never be alone without notice.

Information Amara V. would like to know about your pet

Feeding instructions? If your dog’s breed is susceptible to bloat, how long do you want food/water withheld before and after activity? Is your pet currently taking any medications? Do they have any activity restrictions? What would help them feel comfortable? For dogs, how long do they prefer between potty breaks and what times for their walks? How often are potty breaks overnight? (If house sitting) Is your dog reactive? To what? Favorite treats? (Sorry, I’m still allergic to peanut butter!) Anything else I should know, or any other questions you have for me?

A typical day

I usually do longer walks in the morning around 6am. Then we can settle for a bit, have breakfast and rest. I like to do treat hide-and-seek games for enrichment, and also trade fetch. Outings are available at the pup’s request during the day, or the timer, whichever comes first! In the afternoon I like to the the second longer walk of the day.

Pets

Lifetime pet parent, sitting!

Pet care experience

I am experienced in senior pets, and reactive dogs. I can walk reactive dogs up to 30 pounds. I avoid busy times and know to look for triggers before the pup notices. I do not have a weight limit for non-reactive dogs. Additionally, I have experience with freshwater aquariums, parrots, hamsters, and mice! Play, cuddles (or space), and leashed walks will keep us quite busy! Expect a lot of photos. I do have a peanut allergy so I am not able to offer peanut based treats, and ask that they be put away beforehand. Thank you!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
